The song Windows, by Reggie Coates
Here are the lyrics to follow along:
WINDOWS
There’s a sun in my life
Chasing shadows away
There’s a light in my life
Brighter than a sunny day
There’s a warmth in my heart
Seems like summer's here to stay
There’s a joy in my heart
It’s never going to go away
Transformed and changed
My life is not the same
Windows, come take a look
There’s joy now in my life
Windows, the Son of God
Has come into my life
I don’t mind if you may see
What’s going on inside of me
'Cause I am confident that He’ll
Complete the work that He's begun
There’s a strength in my life
God’s great power flows in me
There’s a hope in my life
I’m sure of my destiny
There’s a peace in my heart
Chains are gone and now I’m free
There’s a love in my heart
I’ll share it for eternity
Transformed it changed
My life is not the same
Shine, shine, shine, shine
Take a look what’s going on
Shine, shine, shine, shine
In my weakness He is strong
Shine, shine, shine, shine
Let His spirit flow now through me
Shine, shine, shine, shine
I want the whole world to see you Jesus
Transformed and changed
My life is not the same
What a wonderful devotional. Thank you for sharing. I really liked that you connected a cracked pot to if we have Jesus in our lives and if there is a hardship and we let Jesus shine through those cracks, people around us will see Him. Also, I really liked the song. So catchy, and the message was so encouraging talking about how God is shining through the windows in our lives, shining through us all.
ReplyDeleteWonderful uplifting worship song that you created titled "Windows". I like this metaphor over the moon as well. I began to think as I was listening that a window needs to be kept clean if the light will shine without hindrance. Reminds me to repent of any sins so that there is not a veil over the window that would block out the light being able to shine through.
ReplyDeleteReggie, your own light shines right alongside Christ's every time I see you. Thank you for reminding us that we need to let His Light shine brighter than our own. In the Orthodox Christian tradition, our eyes are considered windows into our souls - let us pray that Christ's light is both in us and reflected!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this song. I really appreciate your creativity and vulnerability. We need God's light to guide us every day.
ReplyDeleteI love both analogies, the moon reflecting and the window to let His light shine through. I also love when I feel like I've done a good job reflecting His love and I feel absolutely horrible when I am too quick to react and when my bad mood reflects poorly on God's love that is in me. Thank you, Reggie, for the joyful song. :)
